Overview
Chinese Calligraphy Brush Made of Wolf Hair Small Stiff Tip 2.9 cm Bamboo Handle 23 cm For Characters 2 to 4 cm For Calligraphy and Ink Painting

The Chinese calligraphy brush from Marie's made of wolf hair in a small design is intended for traditional Chinese calligraphy and ink painting. The hair is 2.9 cm long and measures 0.9 cm at its widest point, making the brush suitable for characters approximately 2 to 4 cm in size. The handle is made from natural bamboo and measures 23 cm, which makes the brush lightweight and comfortable to hold. At the end of the handle, there is a cord for hanging the brush after washing, allowing it to dry with the tip facing down. The brush is appreciated by both beginners and more experienced calligraphers who wish to expand their set with a specific size.

The wolf hair is reportedly firmer than other types of hair in this range, giving the tip greater stiffness and more pronounced flexibility. When soaked, it aligns to a clean point and returns to its original shape after a stroke. This allows the brush to hold the line well, with strokes having a sharp beginning and end, which is especially appreciated by those who write regular scripts or draw outlines and fine details. The small size is intended for characters measuring 2 to 4 cm. It is suitable for small regular scripts, signatures, fine lines in Chinese line painting, and details in watercolour, where precise control of stroke thickness is required.

The hair of the new brush is factory shaped into a tip. Before the first use, gently squeeze it with your fingers and carefully remove any loose shaping, then soak the brush in water for 5 to 10 minutes. After soaking, gently squeeze the hair several times and turn the brush to align the tip into a point. Dip about two-thirds of the hair length into the ink, ensuring the root of the hair remains dry. After use, rinse the brush in lukewarm water, align the hair to a point, and allow it to dry freely.

The Chinese calligraphy brush made of wolf hair in a small design is a practical tool for anyone engaged in calligraphy or ink painting. The handle length of 23 cm ensures comfortable holding and sufficient distance of the hand from the paper. The brush is capable of writing characters as well as painting landscapes, flowers, and birds. It is suitable for independent practice at home, for art courses, and as an addition to an already used set of brushes. Each size in this range has its own recommended character range, making it easy to find exactly the brush you need.
